From a friend
Hi,
President Bush just proposed drastic cuts to NPR and PBS. We've stopped similar cuts in the past, but enough is enough: With the new Congress, we can make sure this never happens again.
We need Congress to save NPR and PBS once and for all.
Can you help out by signing this petition to Congress? It's really easy-just click the link below:

Thanks!
Here is a part of my response:
We must not allow such important sources of independent news and education for our youth to be undercut by partisan agendas and back-room dealmaking. Thomas Jefferson was attributed with the following: “When the press is free and every man able to read, all is safe.” Every time the President or Congress attempts to further limit the funding of PBS or NPR, they limit the common man's access to a free and open press.
